To be fair, I’ve had the PC38X for probably well over 2 years and have really enjoyed them. ... Would definitely get them again.

Look into sennheiser HD550, recently realised, gageterytech on YouTube done nice video about them and 505. If you have bit more money to burn loads people recommend HD490.
